Christian women and men choose to become a CSJ Associate because they desire:
➢ the joys of participating in a small faith community,
➢ a closer association with the Sisters of St. Joseph and other Associates,
➢ experiences of faith sharing and communal prayer,
➢ growth in the spiritual life in response to the “universal call to holiness,”
➢ experiences of service and meaning,
➢ communal support in living the mission in their daily lives/ministry: living a spirit of unity and reconciliation with intentionality.

Those called to be CSJ Associates recognize this spirit of the Congregation in their own hearts.
